Scott Ratzlaff - Guarding crease Saturday Ratzlaff will defend the road net in Saturday's exhibition contest against Columbus, according to Mark Scheig of The Hockey Writers.

Impact Ratzlaff posted a 21-26-2 record with a 3.33 GAA and a .905 save percentage across 52 regular-season appearances for WHL Seattle in 2023-24. The 19-year-old netminder will likely return to the junior ranks this campaign.

Elvis Merzlikins - In goal Saturday Merzlikins will protect the home goal in a preseason game versus the Sabres on Saturday, Mark Scheig of The Hockey Writers reports.

Impact Merzlikins stopped all 19 shots he faced in his preseason debut Wednesday versus the Sabres. The 30-year-old will face a youthful version of the Sabres' lineup, as the team's veterans are all in Europe in preparation for the NHL Global Series, so Merzlikins should put in another strong performance Saturday.
